At the risk of hurting your feelings, I'm going to say it's poorly written enough to be AI.

"can an AI chatbot write a good newsletter article? The short answer is yes, an AI chatbot can certainly write a newsletter article. " doesn't answer the question about whether it can write a GOOD newsletter article.

There are other clunky parts, so it's either AI or you've written it as if it is. Sort of proving there's still much to be desired.

It seems as if a chat bot by the words and sequence. Again, be warned.

I was saving commenting on these types of threads until I wrote my report on it. But here a little unknown facts. It's more than writing.

Did you know JP Morgan uses A.I. to review commercial loan agreements? What once took 360,000 hours over the course of a year has been reduced to seconds.

Microsoft fired journalist and replaced them with AI to create content from scanning different sources. Writers no longer needed.

Corporate benefits of using robots in the workforce, no bathroom breaks, no sick time, no safety training, they don't require a minimum wage and they can work 24x7, 365 days a year without missing a beat.

More examples of positions eliminated during the COVID trials by AI & Robots

- Bricklayers, robots move up to 3k+ bricks in 8 hours, 10x more capacity than humans.

- Butchers, robots slaughter livestock.

- Call centers shutdown and chatbots utilized.

- Farmers, robots plant seeds and harvest crops.

- Floor cleaning at airports.

- Hospitals and universities replaced dining-hall workers with Chowbotics robot Sally.

- Hotels replaced workers with robots to deliver towels and toothbrushes. Meet guess at their rooms. The claims, it saves patrons money, they don't have to tip.

- Malls and stadiums used security guard robots "Knightscope" to patrol the grounds.

- Manufacturing production turned over to Yaskawa America. Humans replaced.

- Taking temperatures of people who enter certain areas.

The four people who have commented so far think it's written by a chatbot. But, if AI can mimic the style of a human, a human should be able to mimic the style of a chatbot. So it could be a double-bluff.

Hi Scott, and thanks for this. There's a publication on Medium whose editor MUST be generating articles on AI. She's gone from 2 posts per month to 2-3 a DAY. It infuriates me because these are generating money for her and competing with human creativity. Maybe it should matter less because the posts are about info like "How many glasses of water should you drink," but it makes a mockery of any sense of equal pay for equal work.

Thanks, everyone, for your comments.

The short answer is: AI. The long answer may surprise you!

When I have time, I'll gather some thoughts (including your comments! 😀) into another post about AIs and humans.

Or I could ask ChatGPT to write the post for me. 🙄😉

I'd love an AI that could read and transcribe exactly what I'm thinking. If that possible... No way, I'm not talking to her, even if it's to make adjustments. Than what's the point
